It's Always Mardi Gras in New Orleans: Difference between revisions

This goes for any city or country with a famous festival; for instance, a large number of episodes set in Mexico take place during ''Día de Muertos'' or ''Cinco de Mayo'', a large number of episodes set in [[Toros Y Flamenco|Spain]] take place in Pamplona during the ''Fiesta de San Fermin'' (of "the running of the bulls" fame, complete with seemingly obligatory [[Thundering Herd]] of ''toros''), and any episode set in Brazil or Venice wanders into Carneval. And while the trope isn't really applicable to [[Big Applesauce|New York City]], there are still a disproportionate number of stories set in the city during the Feast of San Gennaro, or during the Macy's Parade, or in Times Square on New Year's Eve. San Francisco seemingly hosts an excessive number of Pride Marches; one might think that the entire LGBT community is unemployed, or that they have somehow managed to make parade-marching into a source of income. (Hey, it's the U.S.A., and California. It's what we ''do''.) It's also usually Chinese New Year whenever a show's characters end up in Chinatown, and cities with large Irish communities — Boston and Chicago, for example — play host to frequent St. Patrick's Day Parades. However, it's never Bon when characters visit Japan, nor is it the 4th of July when characters visit America.
